🔮 A BOOKTOK SENSATION
"A beautifully rendered world that seethes with intrigue, romance and tension." — Sabaa Tahir
Welcome to the Centennial
Every hundred years, the island of Lightlark appears for only 100 days to host a deadly game. The rulers of six realms—Moonling, Skyling, Starling, Sunling, Nightshade, and Wildling—must fight to break their curses and win unparalleled power. But the rules are brutal: Each ruler has something to hide. Each curse is uniquely wicked. To break them and save their realms, one ruler must die.
Enter Isla Crown, the young ruler of Wildling—a realm of temptresses cursed to kill anyone they fall in love with. To survive the Centennial, Isla must lie, cheat, and betray the other rulers, even as love complicates everything.
